Papa gave the kids some money so they could buy some ice cream from the Stinker Station.

Down to the Valley for a dr appt.
Kids got to stay with Grama and Papa so we got to go just the two of us!

We have a nest of skunks off our back porch inside the culvert pipe.
He counted 4...

... then looked to see if there were more!

We planned to start school but the days have been too hot to think.
They've gotten to play a good bit of video games while we melt in this summer heat.

We emptied the media out of our water tanks. It was pretty gross!

Blake was eating cereal and then came running to me exclaiming that his tooth fell out!
The following day, he was in the kitchen eating a cookie and all of a sudden started spitting out his cookie all over the kitchen floor! He exclaimed, "My other tooth just fell out!!" Turns out, his adult teeth both have come through the gums and the teeth fell right out with zero warning ahead of time!

Our first strawberries!

Helping me to bake some peanut butter balls/ fridge cookies.
"Oh man! This calls for 1/3 cup of honey?!"
... he measures out the honey...
"AHHHH!!!!!! IT'S SO MUCH HONEY!!!!!"

Getting ready for church in my new 1930's/1940's dress!

After church we saw some horses south of the house and went to say hi.

She has learned to play cards. Go Fish, 4 of a kind, Rummy... she's gonna be a pro before we know! But, we can't deal more than 7 cards because she complains that she can't hold that many!

Evening trip to Amanita

Fannie, my guard dog!

Summer in Idaho in a house with no A/C means 90 in the house at 9:00pm.
Yes, the clock on the thermostat is off by almost an hour. I keep yelling outside that "I WISH IT WOULD SNOW ALREADY!!!"
I hate this heat and am so beyond ready for the winter to show its icy face.
Also, 9:00pm, see how light the reflection is from outside!! The sun goes down SO LATE!!!
